PREFACE. 

This  is  a  selected  list  on  the  related  subjects  of  vocational 
choice,  vocational  guidance,  and  vocational  training,  subjects  which 
are  today  engaging  the  attention  of  the  educational  world  and  of 
parents  and  pupils  as  never  before,  and  which  are  regarded  by  many 
educators  and  thinkers  as  constituting  the  most  pressing  demand 
upon  the  public  school  system  of  the  United  States.  Vocational 
training  or  education,  of  which  the  other  topics  are  parts  or  phases 
and  which  includes  industrial,  technical,  agricultural,  commercial, 
and  professional  education,  is  designed  to  train  the  youth  of  the 
country  for  their  future  work  by  giving  them  studies  and  practical 
work  which  will  fit  them  to  enter  the  more  quickly  and  readily  upon 
their  occupational  careers  and  to  be  more  efficient  in  them.  It  is  a^^ 
tremendous  problem  and  task,  at  which  we  have  only  made  a  be- 
ginning in  the  secondary  schools  and  which  therefore  remains 
largely  to  be  worked  out  and  accomplished.  Vocational  guidance,  ' 
as  Mr.  Meyer  Bloomfield  has  clearly  shown  in  his  monograph  on 
the  subject,  does  not  mean  helping  boys  and  girls  to  find  work  or 
fitting  an  occupation  to  the  attainments  that  a  boy  or  girl  now  has  - 
(this  has  been  called  vocational  placement),  but  does  mean  finding 
the  kind  of  work  they  are  best  fitted  by  nature  and  training  to  do 
well,  or,  in  other  words,  bringing  to  bear  on  the  choice  of  a  voca- 
tion organized  common  sense.  Until  vocational  training  and  voca- 
tional guidance  can  be  more  thoroughly  and  generally  carried  out, 
parents  and  teachers  must  rely  more  or  less  upon  unsystematic  and 
uninformed  methods  of  selecting  occupations,  but  even  in  the  short 
time  that  has  elapsed  since  the  matter  was  first  taken  up  by  edu- 
cators not  a  little  advance  has  been  made  over  the  haphazard 
methods  of  entering  upon  a  career  or  "getting  a  job"  formerly  in 
operation.  X 

This  list  is  divided  into  three  parts :  I.  Vocational  choice,  under 
which  head  are  listed  books  which  may  be  informing  or  suggestive 
to  teachers,  parents  and  pupils.  II.  Vocational  guidance,  in  which 
section  are  included  books  of  interest  more  especially  to  teachers. 
III.  Vocational  training,  under  which  head  are  listed  books  treating 

264206 


this  subject  theoretically  and  practically  and  appealing  to  the  atten- 
tion of  teachers,  educational  officials,  and  others,  such  as  law- 
makers, who  have  to  deal  with  public  educational  affairs. 

Under  Section  I.  have  been  listed  a  considerable  number  of  so- 
called  "inspirational"  books,  or  books  of  counsel  and  advice  as  to 
ideals,  personal  qualities,  conduct  of  life,  and  the  like,  with  the 
thought  that  suggestions  as  to  a  few  such  books  that  are  suitable 
to  read  may  be  of  profit  to  those  beginning  life. 

Many  other  books  than  those  that  are  included  have  been  exam- 
ined and  have  been  rejected  as  containing  little  or  nothing  of  value 
not  elsewhere  found,  the  aim  having  been  especially  to  select  for 
inclusion  the  books  which  would  seem  to  be  the  more  useful  and 
not  to  accumulate  an  imposing  number  of  titles. 

Most  of  the  books  and  all  of  the  pamphlets,  etc.,  are  to  be 
obtained  or  consulted  at  the  Montague  Branch,  197  Montague 
Street. 

A  few  references  to  periodical  articles  are  included  under  the 
section  dealing  with  specific  occupations.  The  Readers'  guide  to 
periodical  literature  should  be  consulted  for  references  to  articles 
on  the  general  subject  in  magazines.  The  Montague  Branch  of  the 
Library  takes  about  twenty  educational  periodicals,  including  those 
indexed  in  the  Readers'  guide,  the  bi-monthly  magazine  Vocational 
education,  and  some  magazines  and  papers  not  indexed  in  the 
Readers'  guide.

Speaks  of  the  haphazard  methods  in  America,  formerly,  of  the  begin- 
nings of  vocational  schools  and  vocation  bureaus,  and  especially  of  the 
work  the  psychological  laboratory  can  do  toward  aiding  a  youth  in  find- 
ing his  vocation.  The  establishment  of  psychological  laboratories  as 
parts   of   municipal   vocation   bureaus   is   advocated.

observations  and  investigations,  describing  some  of  the  typical  vocational

should  be  included  in  the  system  outlined.  Repeats  many  things  from

room  ,  the  need  of  a  reorganization  and  an  extension  of  the  manual  arts 
to  meet  the  needs  of  the  newer  education.  Three  of  the  six  chapters 
of  this  book  are  devoted  to  a  discussion  of  the  organization  and  teaching 
of  the  manual  arts  in  the  elementary  and  grammar  grades  and  in  the

not  clearly  and  directly  utilitarian.  Part  I.,  chapter  1.,  Education  for 
efficiency.  The  author's  thesis  is  that  universal  education  must  contain 
a  large  element  of  the  vocational.  Other  chapters  deal  with  industrial 
education  with  special  reference  to  the  high  school,  the  educative  value 
of  labor,  and  the  culture  aim  in  education.

the  high  school  problem.     1910.  371.4D28I 

The  author's  contention  is  that  the  boys  and  girls  who  intend  to  enter 
industrial  or  commercial  life  should  have  as  much  done  for  them  and 
have  their  training  as  definitely  done  as  is  now  the  case  in  these  re- 
spects for  those  who  follow  the  college  preparatory  course.  He  affirms, 
further,  that  industrial  education,  if  it  is  to  reach  the  largest  number  and 
do  the  most  effective  service  is  not  entirely  a  high  school  problem,  but 
demands   also   the    establishment    of   an   intermediate   industrial    school.

commercial  education  and  describes  what  is  being  done  in  foreign  coun- 
tries and  by  private  and  public  secondary  and  higher  commercial  schools 
in  the  United  States.  His  plea  is  much  more  largely  for  rational  changes

that  a  college  education  will  fit  men  to  be  more  efficient  in  business 
than  they  would  be  without  it  and  also  will  give  them  so  much  wider 
a  comprehension  of  society  and  life  as  to  enable  them  to  be  useful  and 
to  find  interest  in  a  multitude  of  ways  not  usual  with  men  who  lack

is  a  paper  by  Stratton  D.  Brooks,  formerly  superintendent  of  public

a  boy  now  has  and  vocational  guidance,  the  fitting  a  boy  to  a  job  that 
he  will  at  some  future  time  be  able  to  fill,  if  he  follows  the  course  of 
instruction  outlined  by  his  vocational  adviser.  He  mainly  describes  what

lay  before  the  British  public  an  account  of  the  educational  foundations 
of  foreign  trade  and  industry,  but  will  be  useful  to  the  public  of  the

efficient  efforts  of  France  and  especially  of  Germany  in  putting  into 
practice   their   educational   intentions   in   these   directions   in   their  schools.

The  object  of  this  book,  as  set  forth  by  the  author  is:  "To  explain 
why, ...the  attendance  in  our  upper  grades  is  so  small;  in  what  points 
our  schools  fail  to  meet  the  needs  of  our  people;  and  how  the  course 
of  instruction  may  be  made  more  practical  and  thus  hold  children  in 
school  until  such  time  as  they  are  better  trained  for  citizenship."  "It 
will  also  attempt  to  place  the  movement  for  trade  education  in  relation
